What's the problem?!


Question:

What's the problem?

My son's girlfriend, 21 years old, hurt her back lifting a container at her job. Since this time, she has been experiencing shooting pains down her legs, up to her neck, and joint swelling(knuckles, knees etc). Dr. put her on 800 mgs. of Advil... I'm concerned about the joint swelling and neck pain...does anyone have an idea what this could be?


Answers:

May be unrelated to the back injury...joint swelling is often a first symptom of rheumatoid arthritis. Has she experienced any fever or heat in the joints, been more tired then usual? Tell all to doctor.
